first republicans have used the filibuster and really used it as well. it's normally a great tool for the minority to have a voice. it can slow down a discussion of a bill. it allows the minority to make changes before a vote. filibuster can also kill a bill, even if the majority of senators want to pass it. now over the last four years, the republicans have been using the filibuster as really a political weapon to cripple the senate and movement at all. here's a comparison. lyndon johnson served as senate majority leader for the same amount of time as harry reid. now the former president saw one filibuster during his tenure as senate majority leader. one? that's right. harry reid has seen 386. do we see a pattern here at all? so reid is proposing the following rule changes. republicans can't filibuster after having a debate over a bill. democrats shouldn't have to wait as long for a filibuster to be revolved. if republicans want to filibuster, they should have to talk about it. they shouldn't be able to hide in their offices while all this filibustering
